First YouTube Live Design Stream!

Ok, I finally did it! I did my first live stream on youtube and people actually showed up! Yeah it was not millions of designers looking for help but its a start. It was not promoted, and kinda a last minute thing on my part. I had a few request from some people to do one so I figured why not. If you want to get alerted about my next one please subscribe to my youtube channel here: Subscribe to my Channel


I hope to do more steams soon. Please comment on this post on what types of things you want me to cover and I will try my best to fit them all in.

SharePoint 2010 Base CSS Classes

This will be the first of many SharePoint 2010 posts. I will be focusing on a few of the main CSS classes used for SharePoint 2010 Public Beta. As the product becomes more final there might be some changes to the class names but I will be sure to create a new post if that happens. This will be quite a lengthy but it should be helpful. The default CSS given below are just highlights of the full CSS attributes for that class. I will be using a basic team site as my base for the screenshots. Here is a basic structure of the main areas that I will cover.

SharePoint 2010 Content Query for Blog Posts

I hope this post will help many of you feel comfortable with using the Content Query Web Part. In this post I will walk you through the process of creating a content query web part and configuring it to show custom field types. I will also give details on how to use XSLT to stylize and format the data being pulled. I will be using the following scenario as an example. Say that you had a site collection with a top level publishing site. This publishing site would display a the most recent blog posts from all blog sites within its own site collection. To solve this problem we will use a Content Query Web Part and a customized ItemStyle.xsl using XSLT. Please note that the “SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure” needs to be enabled at the site collection to display the content query web part.

How To: Hide Left Side Navigation on Home Page

I was recently asked: " How can I hide the side nav bar on the main homepage layout ?? I want to be able to use the side NAV with in the team site etc etc, but I don't want it on the front page.. " There are a couple of ways to do this in SharePoint 2010 . If you are using a non-publishing site you can add a Content Editor Web Part to the page and add the following to the HTML Source. <Style> body #s4-leftpanel { display: none; } .s4-ca { margin-left: 0px; } </style> Basically the CSS above hides the left navigation Div, and then sets the content area to not have a left margin. Once you are done, simply modify the web part and hide it on the page. If you are using a publishing site for your homepage simply add the same styles specified above to a custom page layout. That way if you have a need for other pages that do not need the left side navigation you can re-use the page layout.
